The softness of Kokum’s voice whispered in my ears, as the smell of sweet Saskatoon berries filled my nose. The butterflies flew up my body and out the top of my head.
As a whole, Jesse Thistle’s writing style is not overly descriptive, but he brought each of his family members to life with gorgeous imagery. His Kokum (grandmother) was always associated with berries. (See quote above about berry picking).
